If you are looking for an affordable, masculine and fresh all-rounder, you will find it here
The Missoni is not a BdC clone - even if some claim the opposite. But when you try it, you understand why it is compared to Chanel.
It's more of a slightly flavored fougere version of BdC, but that's not to disparage Missoni - on the contrary, it gives it a more masculine character that can be found in Platinum Egoiste, for example. It is not the fragrance notes per se that resemble BdC, but rather the feeling that Missoni conveys.
Although the quality is nowhere near that of the two Chanels, it still speaks for itself; especially when you consider that you pay less than 30 euros for 100ml.
The Missoni is sporty and fresh but still clean and elegant. Barbershop vibes are definitely recognizable, but they're not really oldschool. I think that Missoni has reinterpreted the barbershop fragrance and translated it into a modern "blue" fragrance.
At first, the fragrance is fresh and somewhat citrusy, but over time it transforms into a woody lavender scent. In addition, a ginger note emerges at some point, which some may find annoying.
The fragrance could perhaps have been a little more rounded and smoother, but this is not really a point of criticism, as the quality is more than top for the price.
You can use the Missoni pretty much any time of year. I personally think that it is one of those fresh fragrances that you can also wear on cold winter days, as it is woody and spicy enough. I would only not recommend it in very high temperatures, as the woody and ginger notes at the end of the fragrance can make it stuffy.
Sillage is okay and the longevity is above average, especially on clothing.
I can only recommend Missoni to those who want a clean, masculine and sporty scent but want to spend very little on it.
